Whistle the melody to the “Mesa Que Más Aplauda” song at the school where I work and you’ll have kids staring at you, waiting for the right time to start singing along… “Za, za, za, za, za.” Quite interesting, considering that this song is intended for an adult audience. Part of the song says “The group of people to applaud the most gets to have the table dancer come dance at their table.” That’s as deep as the song goes, but there’s something about it that draws one to it. Hmm.
Another adult-oriented danceable song that kids from the barrios are likely to recognize these days is one by Los Horóscopos de Durango…
Translation:
Together:
Time has yet to make it possible for me to get over you. Memories of our love remain. I still feel your kisses and caresses.
He:
I refuse to let things remain the way they are… being with her yet thinking of you.
She:
I feel the same way. I can’t keep myself from thinking of you. My day just begins when I already have you in my mind. In such days I erroneously call him by your name.
Together:
What fools we are! We have allowed other people to enter our lives when it’s each other we love. For our well being and theirs, let’s not allow this madness to go on…

El tiempo no ha logrado que te olvide.
No ha borrado las huellas de tu amor.
Todavía siento el sabor de tus besos en mi boca.
Todavía siento tus manos acariciandome la piel.
(2)
Y yo no quiero seguir así, estando con ella y pensando en ti.
A mí me esta pasando igual, no dejo de pensar en ti.
El día que me levanto, contigo en la cabeza, lo llamo por tu nombre.
Y yo no quiero seguir así, estando con ella y pensando en ti.

Que tontos, que locos somo tu y yo, estando con otros y amándonos.
Que tontos, que locos somo tu y yo, estando con otros y amándonos.

Todavía no me acostumbro
ni al café hecho por sus manos.
Me sabe mal, no es como el tuyo.
Y yo cuando siento sus caricias cierro los ojos y pienso en ti.
Y yo no quiero seguir así, estando con ella y pensando en ti.
